Social Reacts: Players, Former Players on Hubbard’s Stand against Gundy Shirt

Mike Gundy is again in hot water pertaining to his odd relationship with One America News Network.

A picture surfaced Monday of Gundy celebrating his catch on a fishing trip with an OAN shirt on and from there things went wild. All-American running back Chuba Hubbard said of the photo “I will not be doing anything with Oklahoma State until things CHANGE.”

Here are players’ and former players’ reactions to Hubbard’s nuke.

We’ll start with the tweet that started it all:

I will not stand for this.. This is completely insensitive to everything going on in society, and it’s unacceptable. I will not be doing anything with Oklahoma State until things CHANGE. https://t.co/psxPn4Khoq

Then former players and current alike showed support for Hubbard and the need for change, starting with OSU’s most recent Poke-turned-pro A.J. Green.

Hubbard’s formal stablemate Justice Hill also cited a need for change. He posted this tweet and in a reply, he told a commenter “you don’t see everyday things.”

OSU Athletics and University need major change. 100% support brotha https://t.co/2JquXm3aPe

Current OSU linebacker, and Hubbard’s countryman showed his support for Hubbard.

— Devin Harper? (@DevinHarper13) June 15, 2020

Perhaps the harshest comments on the matter came from former four-star recruit Grayson Boomer. Boomer went to OSU out of Collinsville, but has since transferred to Tulsa. Boomer tweeted that the news didn’t shock him and that he “never met a human so two-faced.” Boomer has since deleted his tweet.

Other transfers have also made some bold claims.
